A new massive sale has started



Themed sales:

 

[GhostTrick]

Niiiice
I just put some money in my steam wallet days ago. Didn't expected that

 

[Lagamorph]

I'm guessing it's like the Christmas sale where things are (for the most part) the same price throughout the sale?

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Oh no..I'm going to have to spend money.

 

[LegendX48]

Seems kinda random but cool. Must resist the urge to buy things.

 

[MUnited83]

This is correct, same format applies.

 

[JaseC]

I really wish Valve would borrow from Enhanced Steam the ability to hide owned games from search results.

 

[uncredited male]

Where is my meta?

Gotta be giftin'!

 

[Dr Dogg]

The real story here is you have 1908 games on your wishlist Bernardo.

 

[Megatron]

I don't like how they put life is strange on the front page for $2.49 when its just the first episode.

 

[Tesseract]

OMG OUT OF NOWHERE

 

[JaseC]

Gotta be giftin'!

Oh, it definitely shouldn't be the default behaviour, but the option would be nice as I'm 61 pages into the specials list and have opened only two tabs.

 

[kulapik]

Well this came out of nowhere. Guess lack of dailies allows steam to do sales more often

 

[Jonbo298]

I don't like how they put life is strange on the front page for $2.49 when its just the first episode.

and also advertising the Tomb Raider franchise as up to 75% off. When clicking through, top result is ROTR with no sale.

 

[El Topo]

Perfect timing.

Edit:
Eh.

 

[FoneBone]

Any prices cheaper than in the Holiday sale?

 

[robotrock]

Whoa what the hell? I did not expect this.

 

[KarasuEXE]

Yeah... maybe I'll grab a game or two...

Spoiler

I shouldn't

 

[Psychoward]

is The Bureau worth 4 dollars and/or is the DLC worth getting? I'm on an XCOM high but waiting for 2 to get patched before jumping in.

 

[TheMan]

I was able to jump back into PC gaming let fall after a hiatus of over a decade...the glory of steam brings a tear to my eye.

 

[Tesseract]

you guys should check out subnautica, it's from the creators of natural selection. studio name is unknown worlds entertainment. i designed 3 official maps for natural selection, one the best experiences of my life.

do you like aliens? do you like the abyss? do you like minecraft? if yes, download this game immediately.

 

[BronsonLee]

SURPRISE CHINA ATTACK

 

[Mpl90]

Dark Souls at 4.99. Demon's Souls is the only Souls game I played so far, so I had to buy it at that price

 

[Tizoc]

Not all sales seem to be live, and some discounts aren't as good as previous sales.

What was the lowest that the Alan Wake franchise have been?

 

[Tagyhag]

Guess it's finally time to pick up the Scandinavia DLC for Euro Truck 2.

 

[TheAssist]

Oh, thats gotta suck for Firewatch.

I wonder how a developer feels when he is suddenly confronted with the fact that steam decided to do a sale within their launch window.

 

[RionaaM]

Holy shit, I didn't know this was going to be a thing. Going to check it out tonight!

 

[UV-6]

Oh wow, Football Manager 2016 50% off!

 

[bobbychalkers]

God damn it! Fuck the backlog.

 

[DrArchon]

Been waiting for a good sale. Grabbed some games on my wishlist for cheap so that was nice. Finally got Crypt of the Necrodancer and the OSTs, as well as Hand of Fate which I've been eyeing for some time.

Unsure about grabbing PoE or D:OS:EE. I feel like I have enough on my plate right now.

 

[JimmyRustler]

No, not again....

 

[Decado]

Sale prices for games on my wishlist look identical to the Winter sale.

 

[BlastProcessing]

I will point out that my game, Ephemerid is currently a ridiculous $.89 during this sale. If you like chill, interactive music trips, then check it out! It won an IGF award last year for best audio! It somehow beat Shovel Knight for that honor; It was weird. It's well reviewed! It's under a buck!

Spoiler

Goddamnit, I ain't too proud to become the next Bad Rats if that's what it takes. Gift copies to your friends to show how hip you are!

 

[Tempy]

I'm hungry for some Chinese food now.

 

[Tizoc]

Saint Seiya is 33% off, it's first discount since release!

 

[uncredited male]

Not feeling the sale name. Not enough pizzazz.

is The Bureau worth 4 dollars and/or is the DLC worth getting? I'm on an XCOM high but waiting for 2 to get patched before jumping in.

It plays closer to Mass Effect than XCOM. The story is ass but the combat is nice if you are into cooldown abilities. The codebreaker DLC is a smallish mission. You can play a couple of the missions before it is missable so you don't have to buy it at first.

 

[psn]

CS:GO again on sale. As if there aren't enough cheaters already...

Just bought ESEA because you can't play Matchmaking atm without meeting an obv hacker.

 

[nubbe]

We better learn it
it will be the official new year everywhere in 20 years

Yeah I know how it plays and how it got really mixed reviews but I'm still interested because of the XCOM setting. Also I really enjoy ME combat anyway so eh.

What about the prequel DLC or the plasma pistol?

 

[Weetrick]

What a cool surprise! I'm getting way too many games in Februray to take advantage of this sale, but I bought Goosebumps: The Game for $4.99, lol

 

[def sim]

cool maybe I'll pick up talos later

 

[ssss]

Ori and the blind Forest for 10€, should I buy it?

 

[Tizoc]

Ori and the blind Forest for 10€, should I buy it?

Yes
It wouldnt go any cheaper and its update is releasing later this year

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Where is my meta?

There is the choose your own adventure thing that shows a load of mostly not on sale games based on the choice you choose. Does that count?

 

[Lé Blade Runner]

Ori and the blind Forest for 10€, should I buy it?

Yes. It's really good.

 

[Caesar III]

Oh, thats gotta suck for Firewatch.

They should be aware of this in advance. Valve is pretty talky to devs for when sales occur.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

What's the verdict on Fallout 4 compared to 3. I loved Fallout 3 and was going to get 4 when it came out, then time was limited and I passed on it for the time being and have heard some negative things since. Anyone care to weigh in?

 

[BiggNife]

The monkey CYOA stuff is legitimately cute and honestly a much better way of discovering games than Discovery Queue, which is straight up poop

 

[Deft Beck]

After getting a refund for that awful rhythm game Hacker's Beat, I picked up the whole Shadowrun pack. Great deal for three campaigns, I think.
